Also I once had a car where the front and rear headrests were interchangable but they were slightly different, could it be some joker has swapped yours around?
2008 BMW 325d not exactly exciting but it does what it does very well, which is blast up and down the motorway everyday commuting. Is extremely reliable.
2008 Volvo XC90 (Mrs Munkee's) basically because we have 3 kids and I couldn't face having an MPV. Turns out it's perfect for the job of transporting family. Permanently looks like a farm vehicle inside. Not the most reliable but not disastorous.
1993 MX-5 actually a Japanese import so Eunos Roadster. this is my 3rd and I've owned this one for 10 years now I think. Get's about 1000-2000 miles put on it a year, brilliant fun and I recommend anyone to get one. Incredibly reliable. I wheel it out of the garage in April, chuck it at our local garage and it passes its MOT no issues every year.
Best car ever is a toss up between My Alfa 159 2.4 jtd completely remapped and went like a train, or my Opel Manta 400 (long, long ago).
nice and comfy inside, easy to drive, very nice on long journeys
plenty of power, great handling for such a big car, very good brakes
can fit a pair of Marshall 4x12 cabs in it no prob
'ordinary Passat' looking on the outside - which I quite like because it does not draw attention to itself or its performance..
mine's a 2008 and has been very reliable so far.. I really like it..
had it since 2009 and still feel no reason to replace it
2016 VW Passat GT. Only had it a few weeks, my previous cars have been smaller and nippier but I'm loving the waft. For everyday commuting it promotes a much more relaxed drive.
Last three cars have been VW's, they're a bit on the boring side, but everything is in the right place and works, whenever I've drifted to another brand I always find really annoying things to have to live with.
I got it as an ex-managers car 10 months old with 4k miles on it and about £5k worth of extras for £13k off the new price. It's incredibly comfy, has loads of extras, and is also very fast for a diesel hatchback while still being capable of 57mpg if you drive sensibly.
Couldn't recommend it at new prices though as it's an absolute fortune for what it is and the depreciation in the first year is painful!
I say that as the son of one of their former senior engineers... The mk2 with the Toyota engine is where the smart money is.
And MGTFs are just plain shit

I was going to get a Lexus instead, and kind of wish I had just for a change, will probably do that next time.

Spotify, Apple et al
Quiet, comfortable, drives smoothly and pulls well for a 1.6 (115hp). I average around 53mpg. Huge boot.
My only annoyances are as follows:
1. Service Interval Limp Home Mode. The last couple of times I've got to within 5k of a service and just happen to creep over 2500rpm, a warning will appear on the dash screen, and the car will go into limp home mode until you eventually restart the engine. It seems like a cheap ploy by Ford to get you to commit to a service early. Unless of course I just have a shonky car...
2. The clutch isn't the strongest I've ever had. Reversing up hill can sometimes be a bit of a struggle.
Otherwise, it's nice enough.
Highly recommended

No idea what I'd get in future... part of me thinks... something cool while I'm still young enough to look cool in it.
Other part thinks... something a taxi driver would have so I know it's reliable!
I hate wasting money so probably wont go too fancy (I do like the look of Audis but v. expensive)
